About this program

The Bachelor of Engineering with the degree of Bachelor of Commerce at Macquarie University is a unique multidisciplinary programme designed for students who want to blend technical engineering skills with a solid foundation in business principles. Over a duration of five years, students will engage in a comprehensive curriculum that includes both engineering theories and practical applications, as well as fundamental commerce concepts such as management, finance, and marketing. This combination prepares graduates to excel in both fields, allowing them to tackle complex problems in engineering while understanding the business implications of their decisions.

The programme is structured across ten semesters, with each semester involving a variety of units of study that contribute to the overall credit points required for graduation. Students are encouraged to integrate their learning through a capstone project in their final year, where they can apply their engineering and commerce knowledge to real-world challenges. Additionally, work-integrated learning opportunities such as professional placements are integral to the course, offering invaluable experience and industry connections.

Graduates will develop critical skills such as analytical thinking, problem-solving, project management, and effective communication, all of which are highly sought after by employers. This course is particularly suitable for individuals who are interested in pursuing careers that straddle both engineering and business, especially those who aspire to take on leadership roles in technology-driven organisations.
